We’re Stepping Up ❤️‍🩹

Man… Gary has been through A LOT. 💔 With families still dealing with the aftermath of the storm and power outages, Bright Minds, Big Heart Incorporated decided we couldn’t just sit back and watch.

So we’re stepping up and taking the lead on a few hours of RELIEF, FUN & COMMUNITY for our Gary families! 🫶🏽

📍 Tolleston Park — Gary, IN
🎉 FREE Storm Relief & Family Fun Day
🎮 Field games & activities
🍕 Pizza, food & snacks
💧 Water & drinks
🎁 10 Gas Cards (FIRST COME FIRST SERVED)
❤️ A space for families to breathe, connect, and just feel a little normal again.

But we cannot do this alone. We’re accepting donations of water, ice, food, snacks, gift cards, gas cards, hygiene items, cleaning supplies, batteries, flashlights and more.

If you’re a business, organization, community member or just somebody who wants to help — we need you. Every donation makes a difference.

Let’s show our families that when Gary goes through something, Gary shows up. 💙💗

We continue to pray that you and your loved ones are safe through the storms and power outages that our region has faced this week.

Since Flourish Church still does not have power and many families have acute needs during this time, tomorrow's worship gathering is going to be a Community Service Day & Food Drive.

We are accepting donations of food that can be prepared without electricity (bread, peanut butter, jelly, canned fruit, cereal, granola bars, etc.). If you can bring any of these items to Flourish tomorrow, please do.

Additionally, for the Community Service Day, everyone who attends church tomorrow will be on a Community Service Team. Please sign up for one of the teams below. Some teams will meet at Flourish and others will meet at other places around the community where needs can be met.
